Snow Blankets Hecla

Dec 6, 2013

Jan Siemucha shared these wintery photos from rural Hecla. "Most of my photos are shot around the Hecla area when I am out with my dog, Sadie," Siemucha says. "We both enjoy the outdoors. It gives the two of us some quiet time, taking in the beauty of what natures provides for us to see each and every day. Sadie just turned 13 and is heading for 14, so our time out in the country is very special." Siemucha is retired and enjoys photography as a hobby.

Spent my childhood years in the Hecla area. Thank you for sharing the beauty of South Dakota winters with us former residents. I will never trade it for winters in Arizona, but enjoy your talent and pictures.

Thank you Jan for sharing your gifts. I was born and raised in the Hecla area and still live here and I might add work here (a good deal of it outside) It is more enjoyable looking at the winter scenes by photo than by working in them. I thank you for the photography you have done for me. Excellent and priceless. Our lives are short-- pictures last forever. See you at the Hecla Post Office.

Pictures are AWESOME! I was born just outside of Hecla, and so appreciate your photography of the area.

Please tell me if it would be possible to get a copy of the first picture shown, and, if so, at what cost. It is just perfect!!!

Again, I thank you.
